Trucks are stuck waiting at the Leuseni Border Crossing on the way out of Moldova, after processing times grew on the Romanian side.
The Romanian side has intensified inspections following “baseless” reports circulated in Moldova of a surge in cigarette smuggling, the Moldovan Customs Service said.
Over the past 24 hours, Moldovan officers at the Leuseni Border Crossing were able to process 276 trucks, as opposed to 380-490 trucks on the previous days. The Customs Service is asking carriers to show understanding and patience.
